Let me know if I need to change anything.
Rest in Power Erik

[Verse 1]
You really only need to be playing the D, G, B and e strings in the verses.
DGDG
My candy shop's a factory
DAD
left in the woods to die
DBm
Beneath this settled dust
DAD
a fertile field of treasure lies.
BmG
We the scavengers are hunting
BmG
for the beautiful decay,
[The little bass line at "we the scavengers...", ignore the G over "hunting" if using
this and just keep the Bm chord shape]
A|-2-----0-2-----|
E|---2-3-----2-3-|
[Chorus]
DG
towards the bottom of the barrel,
DA
at the market for the fleas,
GBm
stale boxcars on their railroads
GAEm
won over by the weeds.
DG
Raid the scrapyard like a garden,
DA
wring life from rusty bones.
GBm
My candy shop is a vacant lot
GAD
where anything may grow.

[Verse 2]
DGDG
Weeping clowns with cracklin' brows
DAD
piled in the old arcade.
DBm
Now the children are all workers,
DAD
still dreaming about play.
BmG
While the freaks stomp through the wasteland
BmG
pulling flowers from the graves.
[Chorus]
DG
towards the bottom of the barrel,
DA

wring life from rusty bones.
GBm
My candy shop is a vacant lot

[Verse 3]
DG
Like a vessel underwater,
DA
old mills and broken glass.
GBm
Like a pick-up in the backyard,
GAEm
tree winding through the cab.

This takes me down the backroads,
BmG
from the mansion to the shack.
[Chorus]
DG
From the bottom of the barrel,
DA
here's something someone saved,
GBm
and we bring it to the table,
GAEm
wonder what we're gonna make.
DG
Your scrapyard, my garden,
DA
or so the saying goes.
GBm
You turn water into dead things
GAD
and I'll make the dead things grow
GAD
Make the dead things grow
GAEm
Make the dead things grow
